Chi Enen’s temples throbbed and he or she sat down on the couch, feeling irked and raveled. Pouring herself a glass of water and ingesting it down, she lastly felt a bit higher.

“I’m asking you,” insisted Lin Anxin’s pressing voice from the opposite aspect.

Chi Enen rubbed her temple, feeling as if the energy of your complete yr had been drained from her in a single night time, leaving her listless. As Lin Anxin saved urgent from the opposite finish, she weakly replied, “No, I bumped into somebody I knew. I’m again house now.”

“You simply returned to the nation; who might you realize?”

“Child Chi’s dad.”

“What?” The voice on the opposite finish was loud sufficient to burst an eardrum.

Chi Enen flicked her ear, not needing to see to think about Lin Anxin’s shocked response on the opposite finish.

“Are you certain he’s that man?”
